fangasmicAnd by date obviously we mean sleep together, because that is the point of this amazing flow chart we discovered the other day and decided needed to be applied to fandom, stat!
Play along with us in the comments, FGers. There have to be loads of pairings we've missed that you think should be run through the system.
White Collar
Okay, so maybe this flow chart doesn't take into account that Neal wants to get with both his parole officer/supervising FBI agent and his hot, smart wife, but we doubt it would actually affect the outcome. These guys recommend Neal only sleep with Peter and Elizabeth in order to get his crime on. FG recommends kind of the opposite.
Who knows what Mozzie's stance is on this whole situation. He's so corrupted lately by fighting crime.
Sherlock
Can there be any duo that better personifies the "Do you like drama? If so, then probably, yes, you should date your newly-anointed high-functioning sociopath of a roommate! Who more or less gypsy-married you into the arrangement, mocked your war wound, and has at least two arch enemies, one who probably wants to use you as bait to break his heart."
Merlin
You know you're screwed, or about to be screwed, when your love interest is both your overbearing boss and your landlord in one of the biggest (pre-medieval) cities in Albion. It's a good thing Merlin is fresh out of virtue and honour or whatever, because it looks to us like the universe and everyone in it think he'll have to be boned by Arthur. Like, a lot. Maybe all the time in an unending loop. That seems really probable.
Sports Night
Drama on the set of Sports Night! Dana and Casey are apparently a no-go, and if you think of Dan and Casey as only coworkers it's not cool. But Dan and Casey, co-stars who like to sing happy birthday in a homoerotic fashion on a live news cast? Of course they would make a sex tape if they got together. Of course they would. And in that case? We'll more than allow it. (Sorry, Dana. You don't seem like the sex tape kind of girl. You're too classy for that shit.)
Aside from a worrisome cascade of incest possibilities for the upper right hand side of the chart, that's it -- we're spent. What about you? What fandoms do you see when you look at the chart?
